The Enemy’s Intent
The Enemy’s Intent
The enemy’s intent is just as the photo caption says—to walk about seeking whom he may devour and to steal, and to kill and to destroy (John 10:10 KJV).

The Christian “S” Word
The Christian “S” Word
What’s that? Submission is the Christian “S” word. For some people, submission is like a dirty swear word. It is dreaded by some people, especially wives, and pastors fear to preach on it.
Perhaps they should fear to preach about it because in the western Christian church, false teachings around it seem to be running rampant. I realize this is a very controversial subject but I felt compelled to share some small tidbits of this vast subject that the Holy Spirit has been teaching me on this subject and this is not intended to be exhaustive by any means.

Faith—Do You Have Any?
O.K., that was almost a trick question! We all have faith in something. It really is more a matter of in what or in whom do we place our faith. So the real question is, where do you place your faith?

He magnifies [makes greater] His Word above His name.
…for thou hast magnified [made greater] thy word above all thy name. Ps. 138:2 KJV

Do you eat to work or do you work to eat? You could be doing both, but one thing is for sure, if you are able to work and you aren’t, then you shouldn’t be eating. I’m not talking about being laid off, that’s different. Besides, it’s not my idea anyway. It’s God’s.
For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that it any would not work, neither should he eat. 2 Thess. 3:10 KJV
